Is anyone else a little disappointed that the Ted Leo and Against Me! 7"s are just records thrown in white sleeves? I was hoping they'd do something more than just that.

My AM! record is in a black sleeve with an embossed RSD sticker on it, but yeah, I was still a little let down (and a lot let down with the Ted record -- there's no reason that 7-inch should've been $6, there was no packaging!)

I couldn't get my hands on the HWM or AM! 7"'s - there were already 50+ people in line when I got to the Amoeba in San Francisco 15 minutes before opening.

I'm with everyone else who's surprised about the Ted Leo 7" being so expensive for such bare bones packaging.

The songs on the Ted Leo 7" are both fantastic, but considering they pressed a good amount of them they could have either A) sold it cheaper or B) sold it at the same price but done something interesting with the packaging. I thought the HWM 7" had great packaging and it was the exact same price.

went to a record store (Blinding Sun in Fredrick, MD) and got no record store day stuff, although i did leave with some good stuff:

The new Dillinger Escape Plan (which is, so far, pretty okay. the packaging is rad though)

Sam Cooke's greatest hits

Chubby Checker - Your Twist Party

still wanna pick up the blood mountain 2LP and the kicking television 4LP, but damn they're pricey.

No record stores near me doing/carrying anything worth a damn today so I'm not even gonna bother making the 45 minute drive to the closest worthwhile store to even see if, maybe, they have anything worth a damn.

I should have done this. Wife was on call and she wouldn't let me go to Baton Rouge by myself, so I waited til she went to a wedding around 3. They still had a few things, but only one from my list. They got 4 HWM's, but no Hold Steadys. I got the Thermals/Cribs and Queers Love Songs.
